While chatting with the media, Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood shared some of their favorite things about the 17,000-square-foot display, which is housed at the Industria gallery in the city’s West Village neighborhood.

Jagger said he finds the exhibit interesting on many levels, because it not only features “obvious things” like various guitars the band members have played, but also the visual aspects of The Stones’ career, including album and promotional artwork, films and videos, and stage designs from some of the group’s tours.

“I like looking at all the different artwork,” Mick explained. “And the interaction of the graphic artists and fine artists that did some of that work, and the collaborations that we did over the years, I think there’s some interesting ones.”

Richards said he enjoyed the recreation of the filthy apartment that he, Jagger and the late Brian Jones shared on London’s Edith Road in 1962. The dingy two-room flat is strewn with beer bottles, empty food cans, unwashed clothes and plenty of vintage blues records.

“It’s uncannily accurate,” said the guitar legend, noting with a laugh, “I’m looking at it and I’m going…’I’m home!'”

Wood told the press that one of his favorite parts of the exhibit was the replica of one of the studios the band used to make some of its classic recordings. That display features various instruments and audio equipment, as well as interactive video consoles where visitors can watch interviews with the band members and producer Don Was.
